*2%8. Helminthophila chrysoptera (Linn ). GOLDEN-WINGED 

 WARBLER. (642.) Eastern North America, breeding from Indiana 

 and northern New Jersey north to Michigan, southern Ontario, 

 and Vermont, south along the coast of the Alleghanies to South 

 Carolina ; winters in Central America. In the immediate vicinity 

 of New York City this bird occurs as a rather rare spring migrant 

 but in the early southward migration, in August, it is sometimes 

 not uncommon. It has been found nesting at Nyack, N. Y. 

 (Brownell\ and probably breeds regularly from that point north- 

 ward. 



*28p. Helminthophila runcapilla^F/Zr.). NASHVILLE WARB- 

 LER. (645.) Eastern North America, breeding from northern 

 Illinois and Connecticut northward to Labrador and the Fur 

 Countries. This species is here a tolerably common migrant and 

 a rare summer resident as far south as Highland Falls. It arrives 

 about May 10 and returns on its southward journey during late 

 August, the last migrants being seen about September 25. 



290. Helminthophila celata (Say']. ORANGE-CROWNED 

 WARBLER. (646.) Breeds in the interior of British Columbia, as

 ward through the Rocky Mountains, wintering in the South Atlantic 

 and Gulf States and Mexico". This Warbler occurs here as an 

 exceedingly rare migrant. There are records of only six speci- 

 mens, all but one of which occurred in the fall. (See Hoivell, Auk, 

 X, 1893, p. 91.) 



291. Helminthophila peregrina (Wih.\ TENNESSEE 

 WARBLER. (647.) Eastern North America, breeding from Minne- 

 sota, northern New York and New Brunswick northward, and 

 wintering in Central America. With us this bird is a rather rare

 passes northward early in May and returns on its southern journey 

 in September. 



*292. Compsothlypisamericana (Linn.}. PARULA WARBLER. 

 (648.) Eastern North America, breeding from the Gulf States 

 northward to Anticosti, and wintering from Florida southward.

 locally common summer resident. It arrives from the south about 

 May 7 and the last individuals are observed in early October.
